TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a precharging circuit, a scanningdriving circuit, an array substrate and a display device.

BACKGROUND

The gate driver on array (GOA) technique, as a new display technique,can remove a part of a scanning driving integrated circuit byintegrating the scanning driving circuit on the array substrate, so thatmaterials are saved and process steps are reduced, thereby realizing thepurpose of reducing the cost of products. However, current GOA productsare mostly applicable to small and medium size products. In the casethat a size of a product is relatively large, it would cause a problemthat output capability of a scanning driving signal is insufficient. Forexample, amplitude of the scanning driving signal is too small at aremote position because resistance is too large, or high-frequencydisplay cannot be realized because delay is excessive. In order toimprove such problem, the prior art usually increases the maximumamplitude voltage of the scanning driving signal, so as to enhance theamplitude of the scanning driving signal at each position on the whole.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In order to make principles, technical solutions and advantages ofembodiments of the present disclosure more clear, descriptions will begiven below more clearly and completely by combining with figures.Obviously, the embodiments described below are just a part ofembodiments of the present disclosure and not all of the embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structure block diagram of a precharging circuitin an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, theprecharging circuit 1 comprises an input end IN and an output end OUT,and further comprises a switching unit 11, a first pull-up unit 12 and asecond pull-up unit 13.

In FIG. 1, a first end of the switching unit 11 is connected with afirst node P1, a second end thereof is connected with an input end IN,and a third end thereof is connected with a second node P2. Theswitching unit 11 is configured to conduct the second end and the thirdend when the first end is at a high level;

A first end of the first pull-up unit 12 is connected with the outputend OUT, a second end thereof is connected the first node P 1. The firstpull-up unit 12 is configured to pull up a potential at the second endwhen the first end is at the high level;

A first end of the second pull-up unit 13 is connected with a secondnode P2, a second end thereof is connected with the output end OUT. Thesecond pull-up unit 13 is configured to pull up the potential at thesecond end when the first end is at the high level.

It should be noted that “high level” and “low level” in the text referto two logic statuses represented by a range of potential height at aposition of a certain circuit node respectively. For example, the highlevel at the first node P1 and the second node P2 can particularly referto a potential higher than a common end voltage, and the low level atthe first node P1 and the second node P2 can particularly refer to apotential lower than the common end voltage. The high level at the inputend IN and the output end OUT can particularly refer to a potentialhaving 6V more than the common end voltage, and the low level at theinput end IN and the output end OUT can particularly refer to apotential having 6V less than the common end voltage. It can beunderstood that the specific potential height scope can be set accordingto requirements under specific application scenarios, to which thepresent disclosure does not limit.

Correspondingly, “pull-up” in the text means making a level at a node ofa corresponding circuit raise to the high level, and “pull-down” in thetext means making the level at the node of the corresponding circuitdecrease to the low level. It can be understood that both the “pull-up”and “pull-down” can be implemented by directional flow of electriccharges, and thus can be realized by means of electronic element deviceshaving the corresponding function or combination thereof, to which nofurther limitation is made.

In order to describe structures and functions of respective units moreclearly, operation principle of the precharging circuit 1 will bedescribed briefly.

Referring to FIG. 1, in a general status, both the input end IN and theoutput end OUT are connected with the low level, and both the first nodeP1 and the second node P2 inside the precharging circuit 1 are at thelow level, so that the switching unit 11, the first pull-up unit 13, andthe second pull-up unit 13 do not operate, and potentials of respectivenodes maintain unchanged.

At this time, if the potential at the input end IN starts to raise fromthe low level, then in the process of the potential at the input end INstarting raising from the low level to the high level, potentials of thefirst node P 1, the second node P2 and the output end OUT still maintainunchanged because the switching unit 11, the first pull-up unit 13, andthe second pull-up unit 13 still maintain previous operation statuses.

In the process that the potential at the input end IN has raised to thehigh level and maintains at the high level, and the output end starts toraise from the low level to the high level, the first pull-up unit 12can pull up the potential at the first node P1 under the effect of thehigh level of the output end OUT, so that the potential at the firstnode P1 reaches the high level quickly (the high level at the first nodeP1 is lower than the high level at the output end OUT). At this time,the switching unit 11 conducts the input end IN and the second node P2under the effect of the high level at the first node P1, so that thehigh level at the input end IN pulls up the potential at the second nodeP2. Thus, under the effect of the high level at the second node P2, thesecond pull-up unit 13 can in turn pull up the potential at the outputend OUT, to form a positive feedback of raising of the potential at theoutput end OUT and speed up the raising of the potential at the outputend OUT.

After that, during the period that the output end OUT has raised to thehigh level and maintains at the high level, the first node P1 wouldmaintain at the high level under the effect of the first pull-up unit12, so that the switching unit 11 maintains conduction between the inputend IN and the second node P2. At this time, if the potential at theinput end IN converts from the high level into the low level, then thepotential at the second node P2 would decrease as the potential at theinput end IN decreases, and finally decrease to the low level. Afterthat, if the potential at the output end OUT also converts from the highlevel into the low level, then the process of speeding up the raising ofthe potential at the output end OUT can be repeated when the potentialat the input end IN rises again and maintains at the high level.

It can be seen that when the input end IN and the output end OUT of theprecharging circuit 1 are connected to two scanning driving signalscrossed in a high level phase respectively, one scanning driving signalcan be utilized to pre-charge another scanning driving signal, so thatoutput capability of the scanning driving signal can be raised based ona principle of charge sharing. Compared with the prior art, since theembodiment of the present disclosure can reduce the requirement for themaximum amplitude voltage of the scanning driving signal, powerconsumption of the scanning driving circuit can be reduced while theoutput capability of the scanning driving signal is ensured, which isadvantageous for improving the product performance.

As a more particular example, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a circuitstructure of a precharging circuit in an embodiment of the presentdisclosure.

Referring to FIG. 2, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, theswitching unit 11 can comprise a first transistor T1. A gate of thefirst transistor T1 is connected to the first node P1, one of a sourceand a drain thereof is connected to the input end IN, and the other ofthe source and the drain thereof is connected to the second node P2.Alternatively, the first transistor T1 in FIG. 1 is an N typetransistor, and thus an end connected to the second node P2 is thesource, and an end connected to the input end IN is the drain. It can beseen that when the first node P1 is at the high level, current can beconducted between the source and the drain inside the first transistorT1, so that functions of the switching unit 11 can be realized, and theswitching unit can be integrated with the existing GOA process, so as toreduce the manufacturing cost.

In the embodiment as shown in FIG. 2, the first pull-up unit 12comprises a second transistor T2. A gate of the second transistor T2 isconnected to the output end OUT, one of a source and a drain thereof isconnected to the output end OUT, and the other of the source and thedrain thereof is connected to the first node P1. Alternatively, thesecond transistor T2 in FIG. 1 is an N type transistor, and thereby anend connected to the first node P1 is the source, and an end connectedto the output end OUT is the drain. It can be seen that when the outputend OUT is at the high level, current can be conducted between thesource and the drain inside the second transistor T2 and pull-up of thepotential at the first node P1 is realized, so that functions of thefirst pull-up unit 12 can be realized, and the first pull-up unit 12 canbe integrated with the existing GOA process, so as to reduce themanufacturing cost.

In the embodiment as shown in FIG. 2, the second pull-up unit 13comprises a third transistor T3. A gate of the third transistor T3 isconnected to the second node P2, one of a source and a drain thereof isconnected to the second node P2, and the other of the source and thedrain thereof is connected to the output end OUT. Alternatively, thethird transistor T3 in FIG. 1 is an N type transistor, and thereby anend connected to the output end OUT is the source, and an end connectedto the second node P2 is the drain. It can be seen that when the secondnode P2 is at the high level, current can be conducted between thesource and the drain inside the third transistor T3, and pull-up of thepotential at the output end OUT can be realized, so that functions ofthe second pull-up unit 13 can be realized, and the second pull-up unit13 can be integrated with the existing GOA process, so as to reduce themanufacturing cost.

However, in the precharging circuit, if a coupling capacitance at thefirst node is too large, then the potential at the first node would bemaintained at the high level within a period of time after the potentialat the output end converts from the low level into the high level andthen converts from the high level into the low level, such that theprecharging circuit cannot restore to a general status, and thus it islikely to influence operation process of a next time (for example,within a next display frame after one display frame).

In order to solve this problem, a reset sub-circuit connected with thefirst node P1 can be added on the basis of any one of the aboveprecharging circuits. The reset sub-circuit is configured to set thepotential at the first node P1 to the low level after the input end INconverts from the high level into the low level.

For example, FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a circuit structure of aprecharging circuit in another embodiment of the present disclosure. Itcan be seen that the precharging circuit as shown in FIG. 3 is added areset sub-circuit 14 comprising a fourth transistor T4 on the basis ofthe circuit structure as shown in FIG. 2. A gate of the fourthtransistor T4 is connected to the first node P1, one of a source and adrain thereof is also connected to the first node P1, and the other ofthe source and the drain thereof is connected to the input end IN. Then,when the first node P1 is at the high level, current can be conductedbetween the source and the drain inside the fourth transistor T4, andthereby the potential at the first node P1 can be set at the low levelwhen the input end IN is at the low level, so that functions of thereset unit 14 can be realized, and the reset unit 14 can be integratedwith the existing GOA process, so as to reduce the manufacturing cost.

As another example, FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a circuit structureof a precharging circuit in yet another embodiment of the presentdisclosure. It can be seen that the precharging circuit as shown in FIG.4 is added a reset sub-circuit 14 (the reset sub-circuit as shown in thefigure is composed of two parts, i.e., 14 a and 14 b) comprising a fifthtransistor T5 and a sixth transistor T6 on the basis of the circuitstructure as shown in FIG. 2. In FIG. 4, a gate of the fifth transistorT5 is connected to a start input signal STV (in particular, it is acontrol signal at an effective level within at least a part of timebetween a time of returning to a general status and a time of thepotential at the input end starting to raise, and it can particularly bean input signal of the first stage of shift register unit when beingapplied to the scanning driving circuit), one of a source and a drainthereof is connected to the first node P1, and the other of the sourceand the drain thereof is connected to the low level voltage line Vss.Then, when the start input signal STV is at the effective level, currentcan be conducted between the source and the drain inside the fifthtransistor T5, so that the first node P1 can be set at the low level bythe low level voltage line Vss, and functions of the reset unit 14 arerealized.

Additionally, a gate of the sixth transistor T6 is connected to thestart input signal STV, one of a source and a drain thereof is connectedto the second node P2, and the other of the source and the drain thereofis connected to the low level voltage line Vss. Therefore, the potentialat the second node P2 can be set at the low level through a similarprocess, so that resetting the potential at the second node P2 isrealized, and stability of operation of the precharging circuit isenhanced. It could be understood that when any one of transistors in theembodiment of the present disclosure has a structure where a source anda drain are symmetrical, the source and the drain can be taken as twoelectrodes to which no special distinction is made. In specificimplementation, types of transistors can be selected according to therequirement for application.

Based on a same inventive concept, FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of stepflows of a precharging circuit in an embodiment of the presentdisclosure. Referring to FIG. 5, the method comprises following steps:

Step 301: in a first phase, pulling up the potential at the input end tothe high level, and maintaining the low level at the output end;

Step 302: in a second phase, maintaining the high level at the inputend, and pulling up the potential at the output end to the high level,so that the first pull-up unit pulls up the potential at the first node,the switching unit conducts the input end and the second node, and thesecond pull-up unit pulls up the potential at the output end;

Step 303: in a third phase, setting the potential at the input end asthe low level, and maintaining the high level at the output end, so thatthe first pull-up unit pulls up the potential at the first node, and theswitching unit conducts the input end and the second node;

Step 304: in a fourth phase, maintaining the low level at the input end,and setting the potential at the output end to the low level.

Being consistent with the step flows as shown in FIG. 5 as well as theoperation principle of the precharging circuit 1 as described above,FIG. 6 is a circuit timing diagram of a precharging circuit in anembodiment of the present disclosure. By taking the precharging circuitas shown in FIG. 2 as an example, step flows as shown in FIG. 5 and thecircuit timing as shown in FIG. 6 will be described below in detail:

In a first phase I, the potential at the input end IN is pulled up tothe high level in step 301, and at the same time the low level at theoutput end OUT is maintained, so that the first transistor T1, thesecond transistor T2, and the third transistor T3 are in a turn-offstatus, and potentials at both the first node P1 and the second node P2are maintained at the low level.

In a second phase II, the high potential at the input end IN ismaintained in step 302, and the potential at the output end OUT ispulled up to the high level, so that the second transistor T2 is turnedon after the potential at the output end OUT starts to raise, and thepotential at the first node P1 is pulled up; after the potential at thefirst node P1 raises, the first transistor T1 is turned on while theinput end IN pulls up the potential at the second node P2; after thepotential at the second node P2 raises, the third transistor T3 isturned on and the potential at the output end OUT is pulled up, to forma positive feedback and speed up the raising of the potential at theoutput end OUT.

In a third phase III, the potential at the input end IN is set to thelow level in step 303, and the high level of the output end OUT ismaintained, so that the second transistor T2 maintains turned on underthe effect of the high potential at the output end OUT, and thepotential at the first node P1 is maintained at the high level; thepotential at the second node P2 is pulled down by the turned-on firsttransistor T1, so that the third transistor T3 is turned off.

In a fourth phase IV, the low level of the input end IN is maintained instep 304, and the potential at the output end OUT is set to the lowlevel. Within the later time including the fourth phase IV, the secondtransistor T2 and the third transistor T3 maintains turned off, whilethe high level at the first node P1 would decrease to the low levelgradually under the effect of the coupling capacitance, such that thefirst transistor T1 converts from turned-on into turned-off (or in aflowing state). However, when the precharging circuit comprises any oneof the above reset sub-circuits 14, the potential at the first node P1can return to the low level in a general status, so that when the steps301 to 304 are executed continuously after that, the precharging circuitcan again repeat operation process in the first to fourth phases.

Based on a same inventive concept, there is provided in an embodiment ofthe present disclosure a scanning driving circuit, comprising multiplestages of shift register units; any one of the precharging circuits isdisposed between the output ends of two adjacent stages of shiftregister units. It can be seen that the precharging circuit of theembodiments of the present disclosure can utilize a scanning drivingsignal of one stage to pre-charge a scanning driving signal of a nextstage, so that output capability of the scanning driving signal can beraised based on a principle of charge sharing. Compared with the priorart, since the embodiment of the present disclosure can reduce therequirement for the maximum amplitude voltage of the scanning drivingsignal, power consumption of the scanning driving circuit can be reducedwhile the output capability of the scanning driving signal is ensured,which is advantageous for product performance improvement.

For example, the multiple stages of shift register units whose inputends and output ends are connected in series sequentially and bothinclude a reset end can be connected in cascades in the followingmanner: except for a first stage of shift register unit, an input end ofany stage of shift register units is connected with an output end of aprevious stage of shift register units; except for the first stage ofshift register units, an output end of any stage of shift register unitsis connected with a reset end of a previous stage of shift registerunits.

As another example, FIG. 7 is a structure schematic diagram of ascanning driving circuit in an embodiment of the present disclosure.Referring to FIG. 7, the scanning driving circuits in the embodimentare, respectively, first shift registers GOA of odd-numbered stageswhose stage numbers are for example 2n+1, 2n+3, 2n+5, 2n+7, and secondshift register units GOA of even-numbered stages whose stage numbers arefor example 2(n+1), 2(n+2), 2(n+3), 2(n+4), where n is a non-negativeinteger, for example, 0, 1, 2, . . . , etc. Thus, all the odd-numberedstages of first shift register units are connected in cascadessequentially in the above manner, are connected with the first clocksignal CLKL and the third clock signal CLKLB, and are driven by the twoclock signals; all the even-numbered stages of second shift registerunits are connected cascades sequentially in the above manner, areconnected with the second clock signal CLKR and the fourth clock signalCLKRB, and are driven by the two clock signal. Additionally, an inputend of a first odd-numbered stage of first shift register unit isconnected with a start signal STV-L of an odd-numbered stage, an inputend of a first even-numbered stage of second shift register unit isconnected to a start signal STV-R of an even-numbered stage, and all ofthe first shift register units and all of the second shift registerunits are connected to a same low level bias voltage Vss.

For any positive integer i, a pre-charge unit PCU is disposed between anoutput end of an i-th stage of first shift register and an output end ofan i-th stage of second shift register unit and between the output endof the i-th stage of second shift register and an output end of a(i+1)-th stage of first shift register unit, while the pre-charge unitPCU can have the structure of any one of the precharging circuits asdescribed above. Thus, under the effect of the pre-charge unit PCU, anoutput end of any stage of shift register unit except for the firststage of shift register unit can be pre-charged by the high level of theoutput end of the previous stage of shift register unit in a phase thatthe potential raises gradually, so that the output capability of thescanning driving signal is enhanced based on the principle of chargesharing.

Optionally, within one clock period by taking the time that the firstclock signal CLKL converts from the ineffective level into the effectivelevel as a start, the periods of time during which the first clocksignal CLKL, the second clock signal CLKR, the third clock signal CLKLBand the fourth clock signal CLKRB are at the effective level areprolonged a predetermined time sequentially; a length of thepredetermined time is smaller than a half of the clock period. On such abasis, both the input end and the output end of any pre-charge unit PCUcan satisfy the condition that maintenance time of the high level is atleast partially overlapped.

Based on a same inventive concept, there is provided in an embodiment ofthe present disclosure an array substrate comprising any one of thescanning driving circuits, and thus has advantages of any one of thescanning driving circuit as described above. Herein, there can bedisposed on the array substrate a display region, and the scanningdriving circuit is disposed on at least one side outside of the displayregion, so as to form the array substrate under the GOA structure.Further, the precharging circuit can be disposed within the displayregion, and is manufactured and formed by adopting the same process astransistors in the display region.

Based on a same inventive concept, there is provided in an embodiment ofthe present disclosure a display device. The display device comprisesany one of the array substrates as described above, and thus has theadvantages of any one of the array substrates as described above. Itshould be noted that the display device in the embodiment can be anyproduct or means having a display function, such as an electronic paper,a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a television set, a notebookcomputer, a digital phone frame, a navigator, or the like.
